I'm absolutely gutted after this episode.

Poor SH! SHK was incredible in that scene with JH's mom. I was crying along with her. 

I get that JH's mom had what she thought was his best interest in mind with what she did but the way she went about contacting SH before talking to JH or even her husband was shady AH! It totally justifies why JH was so hesitant to tell her about the relationship in the first place and unlike his dad, she does not trust in him or his judgement.

The one glimmer of hope I get from the preview is seeing SH confiding in Mrs. Lee. At least she is not trying to face this alone and is hopefully seeking advice. I actually wouldn't even mind seeing Mrs.Lee intervene on their behalf at this point. As long it doesn't go down the typical K-drama route of noble idiocy with her breaking up with him for his own good. However it gets resolved, it needs to happen quickly. We only have 3 more episodes and a long separation would just be too much to bear.

 

@sugarbunnee 

It is great that KJH knows Mr. Nam and CSH knows Teacher Lee because

- Mr.Nam can explore more information about KJH for CSH's dad; and

- Teacher Lee can explore more information about CSH for KJH's dad and also can signal to KJH directly.

 

Encounter has been written with reasonable story and script, I can not complain about that.

 

- KJH's mom is reasonable to be like today's epidode from KJH's mom's character that audiences has watched for 13 episodes. 

- CSH is reasonable to be like today's and tomorrow's episode.

 

- We could hope for KJH to be as he has been for 13 episodes about love for CSH in coming episodes too, right Writer Nim?

In ep 14 preview, we saw this scene, didn't they shoot this scene just yesterday? They're really in tight schedule.. with Bo Gum going to host music bank in HK on Sunday, i guess they suppose to wrap all the final material within this week?

 

 

@rosiepeonie188 Music Bank in HK has been scheduled when the ending of Encounter used to be tomorrow. Park Bo Gum, Fighto for Tons of Encounter's script and long Music Bank's script.

 

Anyway, please come back from HK to film the happy ending in a certain way for audiences then.

Sound like todays episode was a sad one where JH mom got in the "driver seat"...  I pray there is some twist to what normally happens true the end of a drama where there is separation. Anyway I do hope JH and his mon have a long adult talk about their relationship. she need to trust her adult son to know what he is doing as we know him. Even if it is sad, I belive this gonna be a catalyst for some growth for JH and his family. I guess there need to be some conflict and fraction for people to grow, but I hope there is a happy ending for our OTP!

Jin Myung's fist fight with one of his friends IS THE ONLY VIOLENT SCENE I've seen in this drama! 

 

By the way, I love how he roots for the JinSoo couple and supports his brother in his relationship with Cha Soo Hyun!

 

Omma will have to deal with JH's Appa and dongsaeng!

 

Happy 300th!

Thanks a lot chingu!^^

[ahdrianaa]

@leedonghaek more please!

@gumtaek his dongsaeng is way up on my list of favorite people, he’s going to swing some fists if people criticize JinSoo.Jin Myung is such a sweetheart during the dinner! Though after P.O’s several interviews about his reaction to meeting SHK, I’m not sure if I was watching Jin Myung or P.O during that dinner.

“Just stay like this, not even a little change. A time/place without SH, isn’t my time/place for me”

( his mom might burst a vein if she hears this, he is going to give up any place where SH is not accepted!)

 

THIS THIS THIS,omma please listen your son words..his not spoiled brat,that wants everything..he just want SH beside him..

Since JH is seen on the other side of the lake, this means that CSH is first on her own but JH still remains by her side, as he keeps following her but in the other world. This could mean that JH and CSH have to deal with this issue on their own. JH needs to deal with his own mother, I hope, she gets aware of the consequence of her intervention. 

 

Adding to bebebisous33’s comments:

I think the pool/lake reflecting JH instead of JH walking next to SH implies SH and JH now share the same stance. Much like how a mirror reflects an image. It seems like SH is reflected as JH in the lake and vice versa. 

 

I read that to mean that SH and JH are now reflections of each other. Perhaps this means that SH is as determined and brave (like JH) to protect the relationship in the face of opposition. They are now really in unison.

How many times has JH gone down on his knee now? Three times?

 

I kind of understand CSH's actions but I cant accept it 

How many times did KJH bend the knee? 

So according to his statement, does that mean he'll give up his family if CSH wont be accepted?

Oh boy... It kind of reminds me of my dad when he wanted to marry my mom. 

[nikir]

We can safely assume a happy ending for our Jinsoo since they gave the sad episode now... typical kdrama.. my only concern is this may contribute trow.. maybe trows episode will end with JH finding out what his mom did.. am sure JH wil not give up but it will be frustrating for him since he will not be able to find out the real reason from CSH.

 

 Wont be surprised with a time jump!!

Jinsoo fighting!

This is why SooHyun and JinHyuk really need to work out their communication issues.  They never really talk about the bad stuff, they just hint around it, and find solutions to problems on their own.  Which I get-- you and your life partner should be whole people, not dependent on each other for every little thing.  But problems should be shared with your partner!  You're not supposed to suffer in silence and keep your pain to yourself.  

 

@yonaomi123 I agree with you.  I see a lot of anger being shown toward the mothers, but a lot of the responsibility falls on CSH and KJH.  They are the ones in the relationship, and it is up to them to communicate well with each other to avoid misunderstandings and confront challenges.  Frankly, I am disappointed in KJH for not being persistent in having a thorough conversation about his relationship with CSH, their history together and where he foresees their relationship going.  That might have avoided KJH's request for CSH to break up with KJH.

 

I feel sorry that our OTP is going through this fierce struggle.  However, all couples face challenges.  It is not the challenges that are nearly as important as how a couple faces them.  I am also disappointed in CSH.  Once she had the conversation with KJH's mom, she should have had a serious heart to heart conversation with KJH about her fears and concerns.  They could have discussed all the issues and developed some possible solutions.

 

After 35 years of marriage, the one thing I have discovered is that our most serious arguments have come from my wife and I not discussing things together and working together as a team.  Both KJH and CSH make decisions based upon what they feel is best for the other as opposed to going to the trouble of speaking with each other to find out what would be best.

 

Final thought is that our OTP will work through this bump in the road toward eventual happiness.

Poor Soo Hyun..I really really wanna give her a hug.  If she ever thinks of breaking up with Jin Hyuk after this, I won't blame her. It's never easy to go against someone who means so much to your partner. 

[NongpeeP]

I believe in

1. KJH's stubbornness and his wise gut to handle his mom; 

2. Teacher Lee's signal to either KJH or KJH's dad OR both; 

3. CSH's dad; 

4. Mr.Nam; 

5. KJH's dad;

6. CSH's unable to cut tie with KJH;

7. KJH's mom who dearly loves KJH till she can not bear KJH's deep sadness; and/or

8. KJH&CSH's true love 

 

One of them or all of them are fine for audiences.

Stressful episode, what more with eng sub...

 

I don't think a break-up will happen. They had been there... its just like the no news means good news. Sh admits she made a mistake there. Her main concern at that time is she worries about Jh. Will she do it again this time with the same concern?  I don't think so. They have been through a lot after Sokcho. She will prove to Jh and to herself that nothing can sway their relationship. She will prove to Jh's mom that she's right for Jh.  Mr. Nam had told her... not to think of anyone, just the two of them matters, i believe she listens to him on anything. 

 

To Jh's mom.... if you uses your heart more than your head, you can't have things right. They should be balance.  in loving someone, its right to use your heart more but in delicate matters use your head more . Your son is already 30 yrs old. Let him go and decide on his own.

No wonder Jh never said anything to his parents. Even his father knows  something, never talk this out to the mom.

Mother knows best is just a saying afterall.

 

I put all my trust in Ms. Lee, to bridge the gap.

 

 

[gumtaek]

Was Cha Soo Hyun getting jealous over the attention  Kim Jin Hyuk was giving to the camera she gave him?

All of a sudden he was not paying attention her but was very distracted with the camera!

Take heart. The second episode each week always ends with a scene I watch and re-watch again with our OTP happily in sync together. Hoping the trend continues tomorrow. 

 

What JH's mom did today was reprehensible no matter her motives. I didn't like the sly way she put that note in the bag and went around JH to reach SH either. 

 

But you reap what you sow the saying goes. JH lied to his mother about those high heels, was not honest all along about his love for SH and what they were going through. I hope as chingu have written here those family members and our OTP learn to talk with one another. 

 

Felt terrible watching SH blindsided by another mom like that. Does the tea lady have any kids? She's my favorite mom figure. 

 

Hanging in for that happy ending. Episode is too beautifully acted to miss, anyone hesitating to watch. And I even watched it with a broken stream and little understanding of what they were saying. 

 

[ahdrianaa]

@NongpeeP add JH’s complete confidence and faith in SH. When they left his house after dinner he said this to her  

 

” where you go and who you meet, these aren’t things that worry me because I know there must be a good reason for what you do. After all, wherever you might be .... your heart is with me. I’m correct aren’t I?”

And notice that they are walking in the same direction. JH is not left behind or CSH changes the direction. No, JH remains by CSH's side. Therefore like @roshzanna I'll remain positive. CSH said in the preview that through JWS, she knows the meaning of a breakup and maybe this will be the reason why she doesn't listen to the request of JH's mother. CSH was deeply hurt back then but JWS never take her pain into consideration.
